Yep ... I was headed that direction too. It turns out that I don't have a bridging kernel module at all (that might do it). The word package threw me and I ran around making sure that I had the bridge-utils package installed (I did), but there's nothing for it to work with:) Thanks again for the help! smoyer On Wednesday 16 May 2007 09:43, Richard W.M.

Thanks Rich!
Do you get an error message?
Yes ... it's "Failed to autostart network 'default': cannot create bridge 'virbr0' : Package not installed"
That's an odd one.
So the particular error (Package not install / ENOPKG) seems to happen when the kernel cannot request the bridge.ko kernel module to be loaded. It seems like that either you don't have this module, or else something in your /etc/modprobe.conf or /etc/modprobe.d/* is confusing or preventing the module from being loaded.
You might try: modprobe bridge.ko and see if it gives any errors.
